CAN    LYMPICS

West Lothian Care Activity Network started in 2007, to improve the links between elderly service groups and address the physical activity needs of older people.
From this group of 84 staff and a range of professionals the Older Peoples Olympics was launched, which was named "CANOLYMPICS"

The Canolympic encourages people to take part in regular physical activities, Kurling, Bowling, Skittles, Boccia and Cycling to work towards an annual Olympic event.
